Can’t wait to read that Yates chapter. The guy just oozes hard core vibe. I was in the press lounge after the ’97 Paris-Roubaix and I saw him across the room. He glanced over in my direction and the look on his face was pure “dude, don’t even come over here.” You could tell it was killing him inside to be behind the scenes and not…

Gianni Bugno. Back to back Worlds, holding the pink Jersey from start to finish in 1990, Milan San Remo, De Ronde, and bashing a spectator across the nose with his front wheel for taking him down in the Alps. Plus bonus points for this flawless execution.

Yeah, have to agree with the Ciussi cages being rad. @chuckp – you can find the full-width white electrical tape everywhere and the narrower multi-color packs have the deep royal blue that would work well with your downtube accent.

I think it’s an orange kit, but that still doesn’t excuse the Rule #14 and Rule #15 violations. Now, to your tastiest point, I don’t think there’s a rule against carrying beef jerky… but there had probably ought to be one against mounting the rear derailleur on the left side of a bike.
